Abstract: The subject matter of the invention is a motor vehicle rear door lock or rear hatch lock with locking components such as a fork latch and detent pawl and with an electrical drive motor (12) which raises the detent pawl optionally via an intermediate lever (5) to open the rear hatch (1), with gearing (13) connected on the output side, for use in a rear hatch (1) with a rear window wiper device (4) with an electrical wiper motor. To achieve higher integration and for simplification it is provided that the wiper motor is used as an electric drive motor (12) and for this reason can be operationally coupled via the gearing (13) to the detent pawl and to the intermediate lever (5).

Abstract: A motor vehicle lock for a motor vehicle closure member having a locking catch that is movable between an unlatched position and a latched position, a pawl for holding the locking catch in the latched position by latching engagement therewith, and a locking pin rotatably mounted on a carrier for rotation about an axis of rotation which is eccentric to a central axis thereof in which the locking pin is rotatable by a motor between a preliminary locking position and a main locking position and in which the pawl is disengageable from latching engagement with the locking catch by a dynamic effect derived from the rotation of locking pin from the main locking position in a direction toward the preliminary locking position, thereby releasing the locking catch. This dynamic effect is achieved, in accordance with preferred embodiments by a control flange on the locking pin which coacts with of the pawl.
